Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO, Jim Ryan, has said that the PS5 will have more exclusive games than any prior generation of PlayStation console. As reported by VGC, Ryan spoke to Japanese financial site Nikkei, and explained that Sony has been investing in first-party game developers, with a goal to make sure the PlayStation has more exclusives than “ever before”. “We have been quietly but steadily investing in high-quality games for PlayStation, and we will make sure that the PS5 generation will have more dedicated software than ever before,” he said.

The PlayStation 5 launched with the platform exclusive Demon’s Souls remake as well as PlayStation family exclusives Sackboy: A Big Adventure and Spider-Man: Miles Morales. It’s been a few months since an exclusive dropped, but that’s soon to change with the arrival of Returnal on April 30 and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart in June.
